When I said smaller intake on the heads, I mean't smaller intake head runners, no reference to the intake manifold.

BTW i'm getting a Stealth II from MTI 224/220, .581/.581 116lsa That cam will make low11's with good heads (Stage 2E 5.3's) N/A and I will plant myself solid into the 10's on juice

Now with the addition of the LSX intake a reverse isnt IMO the best choice unless of course your going to run stock heads/LS6 intake.I'd run a conventional split if it were up to me,Something like a 232-234 595-598 112+4 w/ported heads and a lsx.

JMHO....

Well, I trap what I trap I guess. I figure at my weight, 115mph works out to about 410-415 hp. 120mph seems like a stretch at full weight, but I also have been running a crappy 2.0 60ft, and I spin like I'm on gravel at the 1-2 shift, and then break 'em again at 2-3. So I'm sure I lose some mph do to spinning, I just don't know how much?!?

I'll have to see what happens on a better tire. Should get that going around 1st week of July. Who knows, maybe my sucks!!

You aren't far off! My car traps 116 to 117 MPH with about the same HP as you and I am at 3600# with me in the car. That is with consistent 1.56 60' times. Also that is now during less than perfect DA - the best I have trapped is 119.
